It started snowing early this morning and at 6 a.m six inches of wet, dense snow has fallen in the mountains.

Great Backcountry Conditions http://mooseradio.com/great-backcountry-conditions/ http://mooseradio.com/great-backcountry-conditions/#comments Wed, 26 Jan 2011 14:16:12 +0000 dougchabot http://mooseradio.com/?p=2788 The storms have finally ended.  It snowed 13 days in a row in our advisory area, a pretty sweet system that dropped over 6 feet of snow outside Cooke City.  I was there last Sunday and had the throttle pinned to get anywhere.  The snowpack is getting stronger by the day.  With high pressure settling over Montana bringing sunny skies the backcountry riding and skiing will be great.
